Area resident Dr. Angelique Campen and her team in the emergency department will be honored at the Providence St. Joseph Foundation fundraising gala.

The event also celebrates Providence St. Joseph Medical Center’s 70-year anniversary with a 1940s-era theme on Thurs., Nov. 21 beginning at 5:30 p.m. at the Globe Theater at Universal Studios Hollywood.

A Foundation Board member and medical director of emergency services, Campen has worked at the Center’s emergency department the past 14 years.

“… we reveal God’s love for all, especially the poor and vulnerable, through our compassionate service.”

“I am honored and proud,” added Campen.

The department sees more than 200 patients a day, is a leader in treating infections, heart attacks and practices cutting-edge technology in stroke care and therapeutic hypothermia to save the brain after a cardiac arrest, she said.

The proceeds of this event will go directly to equipment and facilities that will allow our department to continue to excel, practice the most cutting-edge medicine, and save lives.
